Amara nodded, and Keith picked up a piece, offering it to her.
She pulled down her mask while holding the fish stick under, and took a small bite. As she ate gracefully, Keith
fed her with a pleasant smile. Their sweet, harmonious vibe didn't go unnoticed, with several onlookers sneaking
glances
their way.
Finnian and Liliana were nearby. His eyes gave nothing away, while Liliana cast him a worried glance.
"What the heck! What on earth are they doing?"
"In front of everyone like this? They've got snerve! Shameless!"
A girl in a pink princess dress and a dapper boy in a blue suit started approaching.
As they caught sight of Amara and Keith, eyes widened, they berated bitterly.
Those two were Celeste and Hogan, cousins in good terms and both currently unattached. They'd cto the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtparty representing their families, not expecting to witness such a scene.
Celeste, clutching her dress, walked over and sarcastically called out, "Hey, Amara."
Amara turned her head, a flicker of surprise in her eyes. Celeste and Hogan had always dismissed her. But given
the situation, their proactive approach made
sense.
"Amara, as my sister-in-law, why aren't you with my brother? Instead, you're here with srandom guy in this
formal occasion, acting all lovey-dovey in public? Do you realize what this could do to the family's reputation?"
Celeste's voice dripped with sarcasm as she looked Amara up and down, as if she'd committed the most heinous
crime.
Amara replied coolly, "You actually calledsister-in-law? Finnian and | have been married in secret, and if you
keep shouting like that, people might start putting two and two together. You could cause areal mess."
Celeste choked on words, unsure of what to reply True, the Everly family had never really accepted Amara, which
was why their marriage
remained under wraps. Her net

outburst had already drawn sattention from the surrounding guests.
Amara noticed the curious eyes as well and sighed, "Aren't you over twenty by now? You should know better. It's
you who's embarrassing the Everly family."
Celeste couldn't stand being criticized. She snapped back, "How have | embarrassed the family? Don't make stuff
up!"
"You're causing a scene right here, isn't that enough to bring shame? How do you not get that?" Amara looked at
her with pity.
If Amara had shouted back or responded with sarcasm, Celeste would've had a hundred comebacks ready. But
facing Amara's sympathetic gaze, Celeste was left speechless and fuming.
"Forget it. | won't bicker with a child. The dance floor's open, let's go dance."
Amara sighed tically, as if she found Celeste hopeless, and then turned to Keith.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKeith nodded. "Sure, let's go."
Instead of waiting for Amara to take his arm, Keith wrapped an arm around her waist. Her waist was soft and
slender, and the moment he touched it, he felt an immense sense of satisfaction. He barely resisted the urge to
give it a playful squeeze.
He led Amara to the dance floor where they began to move to the rhythm.
"Did you hear what those people were saying about us?" Keith said, "Sof them think we don't match at all,
can't figure out why we're together. | say, screw them."
